pippi Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 I think I could make some money with my current job if I pushed a little more and faked it, but it is quite unethical-it makes its money off of government programs that pretty much suck and perpetuate mediocrityOTOH that may be the best reason for making as much as I can...btw hi all again-don't worry I wont post much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First, you should post more. Second, very few people can state with certainty that the money that they make is not intertwined with the entire statist system.Therefore, if you are competent at what you are engaged with and utilize what you make for your own survival and pleasure, you should celebrate that you are proceeding with personal integrity.Once again welcome back.Adam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
syrakusos Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 I agree with Adam Selene: 1) Welcome back; and 2) It is a personal choice because few careers are without state intervention. Ayn Rand delineated only the absolute aggression of the IRS and similar agencies as being off-limits to anyone seeking a moral livelihood. Park rangers, school teachers ... almost all existing careers, professions, jobs, and employments have a market basis that was usurped into the public sector. Do your best work and make yourself happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, you have no moral burden.Ba'al Chatzaf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Stuart Kelly Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Hi Pippi,Good to see you.As to how you make your money, my advice is to do what is best for Pippi (in all areas). In other words, take it as far as you are comfortable with. No sense in walking away from an opportynity, but you can't really buy a good night's sleep for the long haul.You know your situation and your parameters.Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
